The Richmond Woodturners Club has an annual exhibition and show. I entered three pieces without any expectation that I would do well since I promoted myself to the expert/professional class this year. I entered my kitless pen with the dolphin roll stopper thinking that it might ribbon in its category but not do anything beyond that since it was competing against a number of other categories with some very nice pieces. I was shocked when the pen won best in category, best in class, and best of show. The pen beat out my pencil box which won best in its category, again a big surprise. I also entered a natural edge bowl which is my favorite of the three pieces which did not ribbon. Oh well can't win everything. Funny, that I did very well when I had low expectations.
